Why can’t we be more like Europe? They’re so progressive over there.
Obianuju Ekeocha shared a video today to highlight just how progressive they are:
Watching this broke my heart?.
This dear man who has DownSyndrome is told exactly how much he is costing society & how “expensive” he is☹️.
Why has the Dutch National Institute for Public Health (@RIVM) put a price tag to human life? Why?pic.twitter.com/RBIn6IpbKN

This is gross Darwinism at its root. Yep, we're only worth it if we're not expensive to society because of disability or age (which I'm assuming this also advocates for assisted suicide). As someone with autism, this makes me furious and scared.

As it should. It’s infuriating, horrifying, and heartbreaking all at once.
My God! People! People!!! Do you not see where this goes??? Do the Dutch, who suffered under–and in many cases heroically resisted–Hitler's domination, forget that the "final solution" began with the dehumanization and eugenic killing of the handicapped? https://t.co/2blq0OXGzL

We can just get out the righteous before recreating what God did to Sodom. We start with that poor young man. https://t.co/cMKPCxb9Dw

This video is absolutely heartbreaking. Fully believe only the doctrine of the image of God in ALL human beings can save societies from looking at people with Down Syndrome as costs/burdens to society.

What kind of sick perspective is this. All human live is immeasurably valuable. Especially those who have disabilities.
